My beautiful family. I treasure them. I really do. The little one ‘Abi’ told me she wants a blog to put her photography on. That she’d prefer to take photographs than go to school. I see parts of myself in both the girls. I wish I could spend more time with them but when we do hook up, it’s fun all the way. I am hoping to take them on holiday next year. It’s hard not to spoil them rotten but their mum (quite rightfully) has brought them up to enjoy nature and the simple things.

They lost their grandma earlier this year. There’s still this huge gap but memories remain and I am sure she watches down on all of us. I suppose I’ve sort of stepped in. I feel so hugely protective of them. Going to do Abi a little blog to put her pictures on soon. Then each time we meet we can add more. Over the years she will have a fabulous little portfolio. And Gracie has started to do decoupage (like me) so I have bought her a book about it. This is something I cannot wait to participate with. Aunty Tiffy xxx
